SAN FRANCISCO, June 3.—The fight against modernism today had been taken into the world convention here of the Seventh-day Adventists, the result of a statement presented to the educational council yesterday by Prof. G. G. Kretchmar of Walla Walla College, Washington. “We accept the Bible as the revealed word of God, and believe that the Genesis record of a literal creation is an inspired record of a historical fact,” Dr. Kretchmar's statement read. “We utterly repudiate the implication that man originated from any lower form of life. We look forward to the soon com- ing of Christ, which will usher in the final restoration of nature to its orig- inal perfection.” The prohibition laws were criticized as “faulty” by Milward C. Taft, general counsel of the conference and prom- inent in Vermont politics.

D. C., TUESDAY, From the Front Row. Reviews and News of Washington's Theaters. “Dracula” Well Done at National. ARION WELLS, orchidaceous luminary of the National Players, turned vampire last night and was rescued just after she had taken a good bite out of Walter Gilbert. In other words, the game of love and death, as they say, came to “a pretty pass” in that unpretty play “Dracula,” en from Bram Stoker’s blood- curdling novei. This vampire whimsy is guar- anteed to fear out at least one or two of the in- terior linings of the average hu- man being. The possibility o f dead people be- ing able to walk around from sunset to sun- rise, living on the blood of such frauleins as Marion ~ Wells, converting them to apprenticeship in the same little sport and then burying themselves during the horrid hours of the day, is one of those Mother Goose tales best told in the gloaming of a sani- tarium. However, since it had to come to light as one of the National ‘Theater’s most somber fandangos, one might as well admit that the actors concerned in it must have had a pretty good time watching the faces of the audience turn from green to blue and back again. It became the task of John Cline last night to warn H. Dudley Hawley that his daughter had become the victim of that 500-year-old vampire specialist, Count Dracula, and that in order to cure her it was neces- sary to drive some kind of a stake through this Dracula fellow’s heart when he was doing his daily slecp- ing. It was not until the very last act that this was accomplished, and in the course of the action nearly every one turned vampire, including Marion Sterly, Freddie Sherman and possibly a lady in the fifth row who was observed to be flying out of the theater toward the middle of the third act. John Cline was at his best in the role of Van Helsing, and his best (as all good Washingtonians should know) is just about 100 per cent. Marion Wells was far more effective than she has been heretofore, and Freddie Sherman made bats, flies and spiders seem perfectly logical Millwork New Sash New Doors New Frames New Mouldings Save Money, Too!

Perhaps the nearest perfect dis- guise of the year came along with Romaine Callender, who in the title role had the audience shivering every time he opened his mouth. Walter Gilbert was a trifle over- breathless, and Dudley Hawley forgot that anybody was sitiing beyond the fifth row, but apart from these minor disturbances, the performance was smooth, sometimes polished and often very fine.

Most of the sunshine is supplied by a young lady, Ann Corio, who is supposed to have reached the top in burlesque after a two-year jump from the back row of a chorus. She has certainly come a long, long way since those days and she is most easy to look upon and most heartily appreciated, whether she sings, dances or merely stands around.
